    Hey mark I've been looking in on you and your beautiful lady just haven't commented since I don't know what your doing It's so far above my skill level However I do want to say she is a pleasure to look upon and watching her grow has been a wonderful and educational experience

    Hey guys i was curious if the standing rigging on the constellation was served or if it is just the darker rope i know the tan lines are for pretty much any line that moves but what of the other rigging the plans do not say and i cant tell from the picture on the box thanks

  16. Jparsley
    Ok guys they hull is planked sanded and varnished now it wants me to install the keel and bow peice However I'm not sure how they want me to put it on it sits at a very strange angle and means I would have to sand down the bow quiet a bit If anyone has a idea please let me know
  17. Jparsley

    Matt she is coming along wonderfully Patience is a wonderful thing No one on here expects anything less or more than what you put into her Ive been working on my constellation for well over a year It is my first ship Still working on the rigging You have the right to be scared of it I've been looking at the rigging plans seriously for a couple months and still not sure what to do with 900 tiny peices of rope but I'll get her done just like you will Your hull is looking great

About the NRG

If you enjoy building ship models that are historically accurate as well as beautiful, then The Nautical Research Guild (NRG) is just right for you.

The Guild is a non-profit educational organization whose mission is to “Advance Ship Modeling Through Research”. We provide support to our members in their efforts to raise the quality of their model ships.

The Nautical Research Guild has published our world-renowned quarterly magazine, The Nautical Research Journal, since 1955. The pages of the Journal are full of articles by accomplished ship modelers who show you how they create those exquisite details on their models, and by maritime historians who show you the correct details to build. The Journal is available in both print and digital editions. Go to the NRG web site (www.thenrg.org) to download a complimentary digital copy of the Journal. The NRG also publishes plan sets, books and compilations of back issues of the Journal and the former Ships in Scale and Model Ship Builder magazines.
